Ok got my car friday night, all standerd.

Few things that need doing: Brake pads, sump gasket, rocker cover gasket, oil change, new cambelt. Shouldnt cost me much as my mate can do the work for free.

So today it was sat on my drive uninsured so i decided to get a few minor things done.

De badged the boot and the doors
De wipered
Fitted induction kit

Will get some pictures up tommorow night

Cant wait to get it on the road :)

[ZestDeux]

gd lad what induction u got?

im guessing the k57i? and how much?

cheers mate

[james_106]

nah ripspeed, got it free so no complaints, may spend a bit of cash and get a better one

[james_106]

pretty strapped for cash as i have to get parts today to fix the engine, but what over cheap mods can i do? pretty new to all this.

[james_106]

Got the brake pads done yesterday and the rocker cover gasket.

depending on how much skill u have you could always mesh your front bumper. if your strapped for cash, just stay on the look out for bargains. i know alot of people rag halfords but iv got some of my best bargains from there, especially in the clearance section. i paid 3.50 for my light brows instead of an RRP of £35, and i paid £40 for my neons instead of £125. just gotta look out for deals like that

[james_106]

Gave the car a clean today, looked really nice, used a chip stick and waxed it. Also got the oil changed and got the sump gasket done. Tommorow changing the oil filter as i forgot to get one today, and changing the altanator belt. Will dig the cam out and take some pictures tommorow of all the progress so far :)

some feedback would be appreciated, also some ideas what to do next on the car? cheers guys

Good work on debadging and dewipering, subtle mods always look the best ;) However, is that a rubber bung you used on the wiper? Best to get the proper hard plastic parts from Peugeot (only £2.50) as it makes the car more secure ;)

A set of alloys would be next on the list if it was mine :) GTi alloys would be good, or some 15"s maybe?

[james_106]

was considering gti wheels? how much am i looking at? cheers

[mechsman]

Looks like a nice tidy car. Next thing would be to get some nice alloys on it. Just some 15's or even sum genuine pug ones. Then a set of rear clusters with the smoked indicator section (as on xsi's and a above i think). Then paint ure rocker cover and detail up the engine bay methinks :D

[rob_s]

you wont be able to put gti alloys on that mate without converting to 4stud witch would cost a bit but would be a well worth wile mod imo! get a gti or saxo vtr/s rear beam then you can have the rear disks aswell.then you will need a set of front stuts or hubs

looking good btw love the colour :d

[Marshall]

diablo red, the best of the best :P

looks good dewipered, going to be doing mine when the kit comes through.

it yours a 3studder? if so alloy choice is extremely limited :(

if it isnt go for some vts rims and slam it, starting to wish i went for some standard alloys after the stick i get for mine lol

[james_106]

Didnt need a kit to de wiper mine, just ripped it off and stuck a plastic bung in it from motorworld

Better make sure then it doesn't leak!

[james_106]

its fine :p

[Rallye James]

Better make sure then it doesn't leak!

It isn't that that's the problem, it' the fact that someone can easily pop the bung out and break into the car. I would advise anyone to buy the proper hard plastic parts from Peugeot - it's only £2.50!

[james_106]

Thats a good point, ill go get one tommorow as peugeot is just down the road from me

[Laurielaeks]

watch out 4 the induction kit, might suck in alot of hot air, try get a cold air feed going to it.

[james_106]

induction kit is being taken off, its causing the car to rev on its own accord, also making the car difficult to start. lol dont ask me why it just is.

[Laurielaeks]

could maybe be a sensor???

[james_106]

nah its the induction kit, we took it off and it was fine, and then put it back on and it started playing up again.

[Jaffa_pug]

If you're strapped, keep an eye on ebay for mods - half my car is from ebay, seriously!! you just gotta hold out for the good deals! got a set of 15" white compomotive wheels, with tyres that have loads of tread on em for £108!!and a full xsi interior for £100!!
keep a look out!

[Daniel S]

You'ld better check it. Maybe it's leaking air at some place, or maybe it has a blockage somewhere.

If the kit functioned ok before, than it is most likely one of the above.

Good luck fixing it.
